Magnesium Hydroxide Deposition

Magnesium hydroxide deposition is the formation of a magnesium hydroxide layer or precipitate on a surface, an important process in materials and corrosion engineering. It occurs when magnesium ions encounter hydroxide ions and the solution exceeds the compound’s solubility limit; during electrochemical deposition, cathodic reactions can generate local hydroxide and promote Mg(OH)2 formation near the surface. The resulting deposit can alter surface chemistry, reduce direct contact between a material and its environment, and influence electrochemical reactions. Engineers study magnesium hydroxide deposition when designing protective coatings, evaluating degradation of magnesium-based materials, and controlling mineral precipitation in aqueous systems.

The creation of functional microtissues within microfluidic devices requires the stabilization of cell phenotypes by adapting traditional cell culture techniques to the limited spatial dimensions in microdevices. Modification of collagen allows the layer-by-layer deposition of ultrathin collagen assemblies that can stabilize primary cells, such as hepatocytes, as microfluidic tissue models.

Phase Transitions: Sublimation and Deposition

0 Views •

2020

Some solids can transition directly into the gaseous state, bypassing the liquid state, via a process known as sublimation. At room temperature and standard pressure, a piece of dry ice (solid CO2) sublimes, appearing to gradually disappear without ever forming any liquid. Snow and ice sublimate at temperatures below the melting point of water, a slow process that may be accelerated by winds and the reduced atmospheric pressures at high altitudes. When solid iodine is warmed, the solid sublimes...

Fate and speciation of arsenic and mercury in aquifers are closely related to physio-chemical conditions and microbial activity. Here, we present an original experimental column setup that mimics an aquifer and enables a better understanding of trace element biogeochemistry in anoxic conditions. Two examples are presented, combining geochemical and microbiological approaches.
